Hils Watches Tibetan Sea Flower - Ep 4

Now that I'm back at work I won't be able to watch as quickly as I did yesterday but I think after this week the release schedule is meant to slow down a bit. We'll see how we get on.

Wait, how many years are we talking?

Is this the first time we've seen Wu Yiqiong in a drama?

Ah, we're back to new young Wu Xie again

Ooh a new Wu Sanxing too

So Wu Laolou says he must be cremated within 2 hours of his death, no one should be 30 meters or less away from the cremator and no one must look inside the cremator after he's been cremated. Did he...swallow something?

Oh no I know exactly what this is. Fuck, I'm tearing up already

IS THE STATUE CRYING?? 😭

For some extra knives in the novel Wu Xie runs to this statue when his life is in danget because he feels safer with Xiaoge nearby even if it's just a statue of him

Of course everyone wants to marry Pangzi. And we all know he's doing to drop everything if Wu Xie needs him.

And of course Wu Xie knows that Pangzi would drop everything for him so he pretends that everything is fine. I AM DEEP INTO MY PANGXIE FEELS ALREADY AND THEY HAVEN'T EVEN HAD SCREENTIME YET

Honestly I'm amazed it's taken 4 episodes for Wu Xie to figure out this is a trap. And he didn't even figure it out, Pangzi did and he's not even there.

I love Pangzi so much!

Yep there we go. From 'I'm happy where I am because everyone wants to marry me' to 'stay put I'm coming to get you' in the space of 5 mins

He's so happy that Pangzi is coming for him 🥺

Of course Wu Xie has decided to try and befriend the one woman in this place who looks like she wants to kill him by stepping on him. He has a type and that type is women who could snap him like a twig.

You can definitely tell this is towards the end of Sha Hai era Wu Xie from the way he's meticulously setting traps and cataloguing the fingerprints of suspects. This is a man who has worked hard to wipe out an entire clan to keep Xiaoge safe

Man who frequently has hot women trying to kill him is surprised to learn that a hot woman is trying to kill him

Has he seriously got an internet connection in a monestary at the top of a mountain?

I recognise that voice. And that walk. OMG it's finally happening.

CHEN MINGHAO MY BELOVED!!!! I legit just started crying because I am a huge loser. I HAVE MISSED HIM SO MUCH 😭

LMAO Wu Xie's face! But...um...okay, there's a thing in the novel that I kind of assumed wouldn't make it into the drama but now I'm not so sure...

Oh thank god! So, in the novel they first start off by communicating via Pangzi writing messages on the toilet stall wall in his own shit. When he talked about having diarrhoea I had a brief moment of terror that they were going to go there 😅 NPSS really does like to include gross stuff involving bodily fluids in his novels

God look at him

I'm such an idiot I know who this is and I still gasped when someone with Wu Xie's face showed up unexpectedly. I won't spoil it for those who haven't read the novel

There we go! That's the Wu Xie I've been waiting to see!

Now the two Wu Xies are bickering. Where's my popcorn?

Still not used to this drama actually having a budget. Where are the wonky special effects?

I hope the bickering continues for a while this is fun

Human skin mask my beloved plot device

IS THAT ZHU YILONG'S FACE???

Danganronpa Despair Time Foils

TL;DR - The foils of the main cast of the killing game in Danganronpa Despair Time are foreshadowed in the chapter 1 recap video. - Hey hey! As said above, premise is pretty simple. While based on the initial impressions alone not all of these seem to make sense, connections and shared themes can be found between all of the pairings presented in the chapter 1 recap video which is what makes me think they are foils. This is not concrete evidence and you are free to disagree! I'd love to hear others opinions and discourse regarding the topic in the comments. ^^ I will be making more in depth analysis posts on each of these pairings in the future. All screenshots are attributed and credited to the Danganronpa Despair Time channel. Please watch the original video & series as a whole! For some extra clarity:

From Wikipedia Here we go.

Foil #1 - Xander the Rebel & Min the Student

Shared Themes & Topics: Resenting their talents, resenting academia, importance to Teruko Tawaki, red/warm color pallets, pro & anti authority perspectives

Clarifications & Other Notes: They share a relationship of culprit & victim, giving them a unique dynamic in the story. A clear precedent for tension & conflict was set in their dynamic from their first interaction, though until the murder this was minimal.

Foil #2 - Teruko the Lucky Student & Charles the Chemist

Shared Themes & Topics: Distrust, social isolation, amnesia/obscured pasts, Pragmatism, Logic V. Fate Clarifications & Other Notes: Teruko & Charles had opposite upbringings with one being very privileged and the other being borderline or literally homeless. They have butted heads since day one and seem to be going in opposite directions as characters atm. They have had many scenes of direct conflict & tension.

Foil #3 - Eden the Clockmaker & Arei the Bowler

Shared Themes & Topics: Friendship, kindness/cruelty, Hope & Trust, Optimism, Naivety Clarifications & Other Notes: Arei has always been openly antagonistic towards Eden & Eden has expressed very clearly that she wants to get closer to Arei. Arei was devastated by Arei's death and Arei has expressed that Eden is everything she was not allowed to be but deeply desires to be.

Foil #4 - Nico the Pet Therapist & Ace the Jockey

Shared Themes & Topics: Bullying, Anxiety, Neurodivergence (Heavily Implied), Animals, Strength/Control Clarifications & Other Notes: Ace has an explicit history of cruelly bullying Nico while Nico has a confirmed past of being bullied by others for their identity as a non-binary person. Nico has attempted to murder Ace.

Foil #5 - Hu the Zither Player & Veronika the Horror Fanatic

Shared Themes & Topics: S*****e/S**f H**m, Lack of Purpose/Boredom Clarifications & Other Notes: There have been no explicit scenes of tension between the two. It is heavily implied that they have each others secrets. Hu has been portayed as 'motherly' & thoughtful while Veronika has been portrayed as 'childish' & impulsive.

Foil #6 - Rose the Art Forger & J the Effects Artist

Shared Themes & Topics: Identity Issues, Lack of Agency, Troubled Family Relations, Art/Performance Clarifications & Other Notes: There have been no explicit scenes of tension between the two. Rose has lost her passion for her talent while J has stated that she really loves her talent. Both have more powerful figures in their lives which have in some way stripped them of their agency to explore their identity on their own terms.

Foil #7 - Arturo the Plastic Surgeon & Levi the Personal Stylist

Shared Themes & Topics: 'Sinful' pasts, Troubled Family Relationships, Aesthetic/Cosmetic Talents Clarifications & Other Notes: These two have had one scene where there was some light tension & conflict established. Levi is portrayed humble & down to earth while Arturo is portrayed as haughty & excessively prideful. While Arturo's past is not explicitly or literally sinful, it is heavily implied that he subconsciously feels guilty for the death of his younger sister. Levi is heavily implied to have the heartless murderer secret based on the small number of secrets left & his secret quote where he laments over his 'heartlessness'. Both seem to have a tense relationship with their family with Levi having been literally disowned & Arturo seeming to be no contact with his family for one reason or another. Levi's talent focuses on making someone the best version of what they already are while Arturo's focuses on making you into someone else entirely. (Plastic surgery is not literally this but this is how he portrays it.)

Foil #8 - Whit the Matchmaker & David the Inspirational Speaker

Shared Themes & Topics: Optimism, Nihilism, Apathy, Depression, Kindness/Cruelty, Trauma Clarifications & Other Notes: Whit's primary visual motif is hearts while David's is stars. Hearts are essential, intimate & personal while stars are pretty but distant & uninhabitable. David's true nature is cold and uncaring while Whit is portrayed as very empathetic & mindful of others. Both characters seem to struggle in some way with feelings of apathy and nihilism, though they seem to deal with this in very different ways. Whit had David's secret & tried to keep it until he learned his true nature, at which point he remarked that 'his career was in trouble for reasons out of his (whit's) control'. David is intially inviting & kind while Whit is initially somewhat abrasive & insensitive. -

Tysm for reading if you did! I'd love to hear your thoughts down below, as well as any other shared themes/topics you can see applying to any of these characters. Hu & Veronika in particular is a pairing I don't understand super well but would love to hear more about!

Not sure when I'll post the individual analysis posts but I look forward to doing so when I do. Bye bye!

[skznccmlee]

OKAYYYYYYY WELCOME BACK FINALLY TO AHHIE'S WEEKLY TICKLE RANT OF FRIDAYS, THIS TIME ON AN ACTUAL FRIDAY😻😻😻😻

TODAY GUYS

TODAY WAS SERIOUS

You remember some rants ago when I said Cloud said smth about a chronometer and a number and ten and stuff???

Yeah well

I got to SIXTEEN, NOT ONLY TEN

Each number above ten was 30 EXTRA SECONDS OF TICKLING

We started with a minute and 20 cuz she made me pick a number and I picked eight (8x10 is 80 which is a minute and 20)

Then we SOMEHOW ended up in FIVE minutes

FIVE. MINUTES. STRAIGHT. OF TICKLING

THE THING WENT LIKE THIS we did the usual (entered an empty classroom) and I was patiently waiting for Cloud to finish having lunch

And when she finished

Guys...

WHEN SHE FINISHED

She went IMMEDIATELY for my legs

IMMEDIATELY

I don't know how th but she somehow manages to make it tickle WAYYYY MORE THAN OTHER PEOPLE

I DON'T FEEL AS TICKLISH WITH OTHER PEOPLE AS I DO W HER ISTG

She went like EVERYWHERE

EVERYWHERE GUYS

She went for my thighs, knees, sides, belly, ribs a little, my neck, ears, EVERYWHERE

She was changing the spot every like 3 seconds and I couldn't get what was happening cuz it was all too fast I loved it

I DISCOVERED THAT BEING TICKLED IN TWO DIFFERENT SPOTS AT THE SAME TIME IS WAYYYY WORSE. SERIOUSLY

AND OFC SHE TEASED

IN FUCKING SPANISH

@iys-cloud FUCK YOU (with immense love)

She just went "Awww, you're liking this~? I bet you are~" "You're such a baby~" "Oh, I remember this spot was also very ticklish, isn't it~?" "Nooo, don't hide your lil face, I wanna see it~" "Oh, I had forgotten about this spot" "You have xamountoftime left~ You're doing great, sweetie~" AND SO ON

I WAS VERY FLUSTERED FOR REAL.

Guys I don't think I've ever squirmed THAT MUCH IN MY WHOLE LIFE.

If we had been on a bed I would've certainly fallen istg

ALSO

WHEN WE HAD LIKE 15 SECONDS LEFT OR IDK

SHE SUDDENLY REMEMBERED THAT MY HIPS ARE ALSO VERY TICKLISH

AND WENT FOR THEM ALLLLLLL THOSE SECONDS LEFT

I NEVER KNEW I WAS THAT TICKLISH THERE, IT MIGHT EVEN BE LIKE MY WORST SPOT OR SMTH

After the 5 min finished, I was right there on the floor, looking like the literal definition of "flustered mess" istg

Cloud even asked "Did I kill you?" JWNEMRNCKS😭😭😭

Besides being extremely flustered, I don't think I'd ever felt so ticklish in my whole life, and I don't think I'd ever had that much fun with tickling ever neither

Cloud is just a perfect ler for me, what can I say?

Not to mention the obvious fact that she's a great friend and I love her so much for so many things

ANYWAYYY, THANK YOU FOR COMING TO AHHIE'S WEEKLY TICKLE RANT OF FRIDAYS OF THIS WEEKKKKK AND SEE YOU GUYS NEXT ONE😽😽😽

[axel-skz]

You’re not funny…

Part 1, Part 2

Can be read as a oneshot

A/N: ok so I’m keeping it nice and sweet rn lol ive been taking forever to write but I finally managed to push myself into doing it. Right, lets do the song roulette and see what we get… I got an ad 😭 ok wait, we got… TMT 🥳👯‍♀️🥳

Minho came over in the morning and he sighed when you opened the door.

‘If I could freeze time and spend 50 years worth of time with you, I would.’

You laughed, ‘life got you down, huh?’

‘Understatement of the entire century,’ he said while walking in.

When he put his stuff down, he yawned dramatically then walked over and gave you a hug.

‘Damn, someone needs to sleep,’ you tried to mask your worry with humour. It really was worrying how it became a normal thing for him to come over and go straight to sleep. ‘In need of a nap?’

He nodded into your shoulder, ‘I sleep best when I’m here… I don’t get why I can’t sleep as restfully at home. I’m also sorry I spend whatever time we have sleeping so much.’

‘Min, I’m here to care for you. If you need to sleep and this is where you sleep best, I’m nothing but happy to see you rest.’

He groaned, ‘don’t sayyy thattt!!! I’ll never want to leave. I’ll retire and hide here for the rest of my life like a hobo.’

You laughed, ‘I mean, atleast then no one cuts your hair. I would have to agree with stay, it looks too good long. Oh, stay would kill me too for harbouring you.’

‘I’ll protect you. So will my stans,’ he pulled away and winked.

‘Ok, now you need to stop because I might actually end up keeping you here,’ you gave him a kiss then lead him to your room. ‘Nap time!’

He laughed as he followed behind you. You guys got into comfortable clothes and bundled up in blankets. He was laying with his face in your neck and you had one of your hands in his hair, massaging his scalp. It was the epitome of comfort.

‘Min, you feeling any better?’

He sleepily replied, ‘shh, I’ll kill you if you wake me’

You gasped dramatically as you pulled your hand away from his hair, ‘you said you loved me!’

‘I can love you and want to kill you,’ he pulled your arm back to his hair.

‘Ever the romantic, aren’t you?’

He shushed you even louder and covered your mouth. You laughed but the quietened down to let him sleep. You kept running your fingers through his hair soothingly and slowly, you drifted off to sleep too.

You laughed half asleep when you heard him snore. You really wished you could be here with him forever, it would be so nice never having to worry about him leaving.

When you woke up, it was dark now, he was still asleep so you carefully got up. You left to go get some food from a shop a few minutes from your house. While you were waiting for the food, you got some texts.

‘My crazy cat lady ♥️,’ the name made you laugh everytime you saw it.

My crazy cat lady: why have you abandoned me? I feel so cold…so alone…so isolated…and you have no chocolate anywhere…

Y/N: I’m getting food, you drama queen. I already binged all the chocolate two days ago so its on you for thinking I’d have any 😘

My crazy cat lady: I feel less abandoned now, but bring it faster. You’ve been gone for like a million years.

Y/N: how long have you been awake?

My crazy cat lady: 5 minutes.

Y/N: 💀 you get on my nerves more then anyone else

My crazy cat lady: Crying. Thank you so much.

Y/N: I’m gonna take longer on purpose now.

My crazy cat lady: why must you play with my heart?!

Y/N: because I love you so much :)

My crazy cat lady: you’re lucky I love you too.

Y/N: <33 I’m still gonna take extra time

My crazy cat lady: the question is, why do I love you?

Y/N: my irresistible charm?

My crazy cat lady: no… thats me…

Y/N: I’ll eat the food myself here… don’t test me…

My crazy cat lady: oh yeah, you’re like the most beautiful, irresistible person I’ve ever met!

Y/N: ikr ;)

My crazy cat lady: my food :’) please

Y/N: yeah yeah, I’m on my way.

You got home and you guys spent the rest of the night watching movies and eating. You were very conscious of the fact you had 24 hours till he would be leaving. It was always in the back of your mind.

A/N: it feels rn like the universe hates me but here we are lmao. I hope this was nice, I needed the jokey fluffy moment. I’ll try to upload sooner this time. Hope you like this, remember to like, repost and leave feedback. If you have any requests, lemme know. I’m listening to chill rn so if you hate me… chill :)

1, 4 and 5 for the oc asks?

1. On a scale of “is occasionally forced to bathe” to “Instagram model with sponsors to hoe for” how involved is your OC’s Skincare routine?

involved as in she takes a great deal in looking after her appearance but not finicky to the point that she's extra strict with the ingredients going on her face or the kind of diet she has so she can look better. her appearance is definitely one of the things she takes great pride on, so maintenance is def something she does as part of her nightly routine -and shri'iia is def a creature of habit so she has her own skincare routine that she does, then as the creams are settling in her face she's gonna polish her armour, her weapon, prepare her poisons, etc. she likes to keep herself busy!

4. What’s your OC’s response to being asked for money by a homeless person?

probably laugh 😭 listen. shri'iia is NOT the kindest nor the most generous, and she really does not believe in charity. she def still has that drow victim blaming mindset and she believes more if someone gets up and helps themselves rather than beg for it, so in a chance that someone asks for her coins, she would just laugh at them and say no. the only time she'll be charitable is when it comes to something regarding her oath - so if someone is in need to break away from their master - THAT'S when she will come running, free of charge, but in general, she really won't help.

5. Does your OC get lost easily? What do they do when they do get lost?

frequently, especially in the surface world where she is still so very unfamiliar with the terrains and landscape both in cities and in the wild. i imagine she navigates through the underdark much more comfortably since the dark is her home and she is more comfortable with seeing things with her darkvision rather than seeing them in the light. if she is lost, she will try to act like she isn't while trying to figure out how to navigate herself. shri'iia will try to avoid asking for directions especially if she's in some small town since she's not sure how they'll react to seeing a drow in the surface, and imagine her paranoia is flaring and she's trying her best to calm her nerves. like in the first 30 mins she'll probably be fine but as the longer it goes, that's when she'll start getting bewildered and anxious and she feels like she's gonna get hunted for sport and everyone will be out to kill her but she's FINE btw she's not gonna ask for your help...!! she can work this out.......!!

also a hag romance thought i really do like the idea that he just ends up holding her hand when they visited baldur's gate for the first time (in my head it's more crowded than what it is in game lmfao) bc she was just standing there like 🧍‼️ looking very bewildered and overwhelmed. not it's become a thing that they do where he'll just hold her hand if they're in some crowded space so she doesn't get lost.

Last update: 20/10/24

[teecupangel]

Hey, wanna read me defending myself in my plans to multiclass Desmond into a Rogue-Thief/Ranger-Gloom Stalker?

The thing about trying to play as Desmond in Baldur's Gate is that I'm forcing the narrative to work around my need to min-max in terms of classes allocation.

Narrative choices are easy because Desmond's more on the side of neutral good, sliding into true neutral with the whole 'stab them when it's clear they killed an innocent' guideline.

But the classes though... the thing about Assassins in Assassin's Creed is that they're not exactly a 1:1 of the Assassin subclass.

So my reasoning for the plan to multiclass Desmond into Rogue-Thief (4)/Ranger-Gloom Stalker(5) is...

Thief subclass is chosen because [Fast Hands] means +1 bonus action which would make it easier for Desmond to hide and/or dash/disengage. Hiding is the best way to get the Sneak Attack actions. [Second-Story Work] means less falling damage which could made into our narrative workaround for Leaps of Faith. Assassin subclass was passed over because Thief has more utility and Assassin is more combat oriented with focus on attacking targets that have not taken a turn yet. This could, narratively, be more or less the equivalent to the Hidden Blade's oneshot kills but it doesn't work because early level Rogue has a hard time oneshoting enemies at low level. Rogue will be leveled up to Lv4 so Desmond can get another Feat (Ability Improvement: Dex +2 to up it to 20)

Gloom Stalker Ranger is chosen because Favoured Enemy [Bounty Hunter] gives Investigation Proficiency and Natural Explorer [Urban Tracker] gives Sleight of Hand Proficiency. Narratively, Urban Tracker goes well with Desmond's background and his Bleeds are experts in the urban areas of their time. Anything that gives more Investigation Proficiency is good as part of Eagle Vision. Lv 2 will let us get Speak with Animals and Enhance Leap (Enhance Leap is pretty much necessary since Str is needed for jumping but Str is a dump stat for Rogues so yeah, we'll have Desmond cheat for this one). Lv 4 will let Desmond get Gloom Stalker subclass and automatically get Disguise Self which means we can put the Disguise Self helmet (I forgot the name) back to camp ([Dread Ambusher] is also more consistent than the Assassin subclass unique skills)

The reason why we're going for up to Lv 5 Gloom Stalker is that Desmond can get an Extra Attack + Misty Step at Lv 5 (and he can get Past without Trace as well for extra stealth)

This does leave 3 more levels to allocate and we have some options:

Rogue up to Lv 7 so Desmond can get Uncanny Dodge + Evasion and an additional 1d6 for Sneak Attack damage.

Ranger up to Lv8 so Desmond can get another feat (probably Dungeon Delver for Advantage on Perception and Saving Throws to avoid/resist traps or Savage Attacker if Desmond can now safely melee) and can get Land's Stride so he won't be slowed down by difficult terrain.

Rogue up to Lv 5 for Uncanny Dodge and an additional 1d6 for Sneak Attack damage + Ranger up to Lv 7 for an additional Lv2 Spell Slot.

Or... we go and lean into Desmond being a bartender and have him multiclass up to Lv3 Bard (or Lv2 Bard with Lv5 Rogue + Lv5 Ranger) so he can have more spells (probably Detect Thoughts and maybe something like Feather Fall? idk) or we go for Lv3 Druid (Wild Shape) as a reference to Tyranny of Washington DLC (which does have wolf and bear in the Circle of the Moon)

I think it's so interesting how they frame it when team black victimizes someone versus when team green does it. Daemyra have a servant killed but we barely even see them on screen for more than a second, we're supposed to see them as good because they spared Laenor who can now live a free life, allies!! Daemon kills his wife but she antagonizes him and its almost framed as an accident. Vaemond calls Rhaenyra a whore so it's justified his head gets cut off. Then there's the greens...

The first time we “meet” adult aegon we don’t even meet the actor we first meet him through his rape victim who we see crying on screen for 5 mins and we see Alicent be sympathetic but also manipulate her, some people even thought she was poisoning the girl. Then there’s Larys who kills his father and brother without hesitance, two people who are sympathetic to the audience, Alicent is shocked but also doesn’t do anything about it. And then that same guy has Alicent take out her feet for him to

to jack off to for info? They even filmed a scene with children fighting which is notoriously hard to do to show us how awful Aegon is and then have a close up of Aegon’s own child and we learn that the children’s teeth and nails are filed in a pointy way to make them extra dangerous. Somehow none of this was happening during Viserys’ rule, when Harwin was captain of the gold cloaks? Adding things up its so transparent.

Yeah that's a very valid criticism, I mean I get that the Blacks are largely meant to be the protagonists and Greens are meant to be the antagonists, but the distinction that they try to make is kinda unnecessary and the framing is unfair. What makes the Dance interesting to me is that there aren't any heroes or good guys, and while I understand that they want the audience to have someone to root for, it's just kind of a weak way of making that happen.

3 weeks later

The past 3 weeks have passed quickly, as one would expect when they are settling in a new country. We hit the ground running as Naomi went straight back to work and I started my online study for the physio exam I am required to take. We currently live in a tiny apartment in down town while we wait for our shipment to arrive and settle our rental contract (very exciting news potentially!). On our first weekend we went winter clothes shopping, because who on earth would have clothes suitable for -40 degree weather conditions. After a lot of good advice from the experts I left with clothes that would puff me up like a penguin, but keep me warm. Pictures below are from the park around the corner and apartment view.

On our second weekend we did the Healy Pass trial which was through the forest, up the valley to a small pass from which we had stunning views over Egypt Lake and the larch trees spread out beneath us. Days like these make me realize how lucky I am to have such nature less than 1.5 hours drive away from me. This was 2 days after the news of that 2 experienced hikers got killed in a bear attack which did make us a bit more alert while hiking.

On Wednesday we visited my first ice hockey game, from now on referred to as ''hockey''. I had to compromise on this change of naming to get Naomi to accept that ''football'' was the proper sport with a round ball, not the eggball they play here. In return hockey is played on ice, while field hockey on a pitch. Anyway, watching my first ever ice hockey game left me with mixed feelings. The first 7 minutes were great, high intensity, body slams, great feats of skill. Everything you hope to see in a good sports game. And then BOOM, lights out, everyone skates to the ''dug out'' and these ice sweepers skate onto the rink to clean up the chaffed ice. But while they do so adverts and minigames are being played in the arena. A very confused Rob was then told this was the ad break, so the tv advertisements could play and generate revenue. And this didn't happen just once, but every 6-7 minutes, for each period of the game... That's a total of 6 interruptions, without the official breaks! You can now understand that this did not fall well with a European who is used to watching a sport 45 min + extra time undisturbed. with a nonsense fluffy dog mascot entering into the crowd shooting T-shirt cannisters from his high pressure gun. It was a cool experience, but the take away message was that American sport events are more led to be ''entertainment'' events where sport comes second.

Lastly, I've already experienced how the weather can swing within a few days. 5 days ago I played my first football match with my new team (VG Legion) in 20 degrees. Within 5 days the weather has swung from that, to a 10cm layer of snow and -10 degrees. Better get used to it, at least I was on time buying warm clothing!

Before You Were Born, ch. 15

[reading time] 5½ mins.

A cool breeze whipped past us, ruffling the grass around the fairy circle. Rayna and I looked down upon the formation with some trepidation. It would only be the two of us, after all. I hoped it would be enough. From here, the waiting entrance to the fey world seemed plain and unassuming. Most people would have no idea it was even here.

Rayna broke the silence. “Well, Sylvie. You can’t procrastinate anymore. What’s the plan?”

I didn’t really have a plan, but I couldn’t tell her that. “We go in, quietly. We find Ixion. Hopefully we can surprise him and restrain him. I don’t really want to kill him, even after all he’s done. If we’re successful, we can turn him over to the royal knights. I know the detective said he wanted to make an arrest, but I don’t think the police would have the slimmest chance of holding him.”

“I guess this whole thing is riding on our assumption that he wouldn’t believe we’d come after him. What if he is waiting for us? Worse, what if it’s a trap?”

I dug the toe of my boot into the dirt. “It’s a possibility. We’ll just have to be cautious.”

Rayna stood and watched while I pulled a few of my father’s tools out of my bag: a set of gold rings, one for each finger on my left hand; a long, white cord of silk rope that I wound around my waist; and a belt pouch loaded with the most potent reagents I had on hand.

She put her hands in her jeans pockets. “I don’t suppose you’ve got anything that might help me… I dunno, do something? I feel a bit lost.”

I fiddled with tightening the straps of my belt. “Not without a bunch of extra training. Use what you know. Use the drills you practiced. You should be able to tap into magic more freely once we’re on the other side, so be ready for that.”

I turned to head for the ring of mushrooms, but she caught my hand in hers and pulled me back around to face her. “Sylvie?”

I looked into her beautiful eyes. The cinnamon hue was tinged with fear, and I had no idea what to say to comfort her.

She continued. “Look, it’s pretty obvious we don’t know what we’re doing, and there’s a really good chance we’re going to go in there and get… get killed. Hell, I don’t even know why I’m still following you—no, that’s a lie. I know exactly why.”

“Rayna…”

“Please, let me say what I need to say. Sylvie… I don’t know if you feel like I do, but I really think I’ve started to fall for you. I needed to tell you that before we quite possibly go to our collective doom.”

My mind and my heart raced in unison. I didn’t expect such a blunt confession. Did I feel the same way? It was hard to put into words. I definitely felt something for her, but I knew she meant romantic feelings specifically. I couldn’t say if I’d ever felt that way about anyone. What did it feel like? I remembered my mother. I knew exactly why she looked at Rayna with disapproval. She wanted grandchildren. She would be upset if I involved myself with another woman. Be it man, woman, or whatever, though, I’d never felt the way she described feeling about my father. What should I do?

I didn’t realize that I was lost in my own head. Rayna’s eyes fell to the ground after a long silence. “Oh… sorry. That was foolish.”

Now I’d hurt her feelings, and that felt like having my own heart crushed. “No! Not foolish at all. I’m sorry. I’ll try my best to explain later. It’s… complicated.”

She simpered. “Okay.”

Her voice overflowed with skepticism. Not that I could blame her; I had no way to guarantee that “later” would actually happen. I shook the confusion from my mind. As much as I wanted to comfort Rayna, this was no time to be distracted.

I turned my attention back to the unassuming circle on the ground. Without further hesitation, I leapt through the ragged edges between worlds.

All around us, tall trees with bright golden flowers and grass the colour of the ocean waves covered the landscape. Even the marsh water was crystal clear and reflected the sunlight. I could smell the sweet aroma of nectar and heard dragonflies buzzing to and fro. After so many decades away from my home, I forgot what an assault on the senses it could be compared to the human world.

Rayna ran her fingertips lightly along one of the broad, purple leaves of a shrub. “This place is gorgeous. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

I looked over at her, but I saw a different form of beauty. She was radiating with the magic of the fey realm, so much so that it dripped off of her in splashes of silver light. The raw power she could muster here surprised even me. She probably couldn’t see it herself, though.

“It’s taking a bit of adjusting even for me,” I replied. “When I was a child it was just normal, but now it’s like walking into the sunlight from a dark room. Burn this place into your memory, though. We’ll need to return here to get back to the city.”

She glanced back at the other side of the fairy circle. In this place, it was a ring of stones carved into the shapes of small mushrooms, a purposeful bridge placed here.

“That was an easy crossing. How do people not just stumble through all the time?”

I shrugged. “Some do, if they wish it. Even though it’s not hard to push through, it does still require intent. I imagine that’s how so many humans still live in denial of it all.”

She nodded and raised her hand to her face to admire a small, iridescent butterfly that had alighted on it.

I was agitated and would brook no delay. “Come on, let’s get moving. The house is this way.”

Moving across the marsh physically went much slower than my scrying session. We had to pick our footholds carefully so that we didn’t sink into the ground. All the while, the sun slowly crawled across the sky. It felt like hours passed, but that was likely a combination of my impatience and the tedious work of hopping from one patch of sodden grass to another.

I took a moment to observe our surroundings. Great grey mountains towered to the east, distant and majestic. To the west, the marsh collided with a vast forest. Even further out, almost out of sight, I could see golden spires rising above the trees. Was that Rosehold? I’d studied maps of my homeland my whole life, but it was very different trying to get my bearings from ground level. I buried my curiosity and focused on moving forward.

We drew closer to the house I’d seen before, and it was as dilapidated as I remembered. I could see no lights or other signs of inhabitance. Now that we were crossing the swamp, I felt keenly aware of how exposed we were. Anyone who was inside would be able to see us coming from quite a distance. Perhaps it would’ve been smarter to wait for nightfall? Wait… what was I thinking? I was an alchemist. I could make cover for us!

I stopped Rayna when we got to the next solid patch of grass. “Hold on. I have an idea on how to mask our approach.”

She watched patiently while I fetched a few chemical reagents from my belt pouch along with a polished disc of calcite. In the past, my father forbade me from working the weather, since it was impossible to do without irking your neighbours (for several miles around, no less). Thankfully he didn’t stop me from studying the practice, though. I said a few rites over the still water of the marsh while sprinkling in a drop of mercury, a pinch of diamond dust, and a few balsam fir needles. Then I dropped the calcite in with a satisfying splash.

After a handful of seconds, nothing changed, and Rayna peered over my shoulder. “Is something supposed to happen?”

“Give it some time…”

The water’s surface puckered. Then it happened again, and again, one after the other until rain drops formed and fell upward into the sky. I smiled, relieved. I wasn’t sure that I’d be able to recreate that particular spell from memory. Soft clouds formed rapidly all around. A dense, grey fog clung to the ground and grew to rise above our heads. Unfortunately it also chilled us and dampened our clothes.

I laughed, genuinely pleased with myself. “It worked!”

Rayna slowly twirled around in a circle, surveying the misty shroud around us. “Not exactly subtle. You think they’ll get suspicious of a sudden fog rolling in?”

“Perhaps. But they still won’t be able to see us.”

“Well, we can’t see either. We need to keep our bearings, or we’ll just miss the house entirely.”

She had a point there. I forgot that we still needed to see so we could find our way to the dilapidated building. I thought I knew which direction to go, so I led us further into the roiling mists. The fog was thick and suffocating, and I felt a growing dread fall over me. Despite the cover I’d provided us, not knowing Ixion’s location either unnerved me. I imagined his sinister face suddenly emerging from the shifting fog, and my knees shook.

I didn’t want to lose my way in the fog, so I grabbed Rayna’s hand, and together we walked in what I hoped was the right direction.
